July 6th 2006 , As I said yesterday we have not been to see Dilan today, but Jen and Gareth have sent regular updates as follows: She was good as gold over night getting the award for "Best in Room" !!!! milk was up to 4ml and all is well. At lunchtime she was fast asleep, on her stomach, which how she seems to like it and so the proud parents went out for a while, she was taken off the insulin last night as her sugar levels seem to now be holding thier own. I had a call instead of a text this morning as it seems that the doctors are so pleased with Dilan s progress Gareth and Jen were feeling really bouyed by it, they are hoping that the only set backs now should be minor compared to what we may have expected, like short term ventilation, anti biotics etc, after another brain scan it would appear that the bleeding is no worse and, again, they do not see it getting any worse. This is all really great news, but like Jen and Gareth none of us should lose sight of the fact that Dilan still has a way to go, but HEY what a start !
Milk is is now up to 4.5ml and doctors are saying that if Dilan carries on as she is, it should be possible to remove the nutrient drip in the next 24 to 36 hrs, here's hoping. She has been out of her "fish tank" for nearly two hours this afternoon for a cuddle with her mum and dad, how good is that ?
Once again Dilan has settled for the night and Jen and gareth are returning home till tomorrow.
..........Another 24hrs !!!!!!!!!
